Ayat 93. "That you followed me not
(according to my advice to you)? Have you then disobeyed my order?"
Ayat 94. He [Harun (Aaron)] said: "O son of my
mother! Seize (me) not by my beard, nor by my head! Verily, I feared lest you
should say: 'You have caused a division among the Children of Israel, and you
have not respected my word!' "
[Tafseer] "From following me? Didst thou then
disobey my order?" Moses, when he came back, was full of anger and grief. His
speech to Aaron is one of rebuke, and he was also inclined to handle him
roughly: see next verse. The order he refers to is that stated in Surah Aaraf 7:
Ayat 142. "Act for me amongst my people: do right, and follow not the way of
those who do mischief." (Aaron) replied: "O son of my mother! Seize (me) not by my
beard nor by (the hair of) my head! Truly I feared lest thou should say, ´Thou
has caused a division among the children of Israel, and thou didst not respect
my word!´" This reply of Aaron's is in no way inconsistent with the
reply as noted in 7:150. On the contrary, there is a dramatic aptness in the
different points emphasized on each occasion, and Aaron rightly says: "The
people did indeed reckon me as naught, and went near to slay me!" In adding,
"Let not the enemies rejoice over my misfortune" he is referring by implication
to his brother's wish to maintain unity among the people. Here the unity is the
chief point to emphasize: we are dealing with the Samiri as mischief-monger, and
he could best be dealt with by Moses, who proceeds to do
so.
Hazrat Saeed Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with
him) reported: The Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Whoever amongst you sees an evil, he must change it with his hand; if he
is unable to do so, then with his tongue; and if he is unable to do so, then
with his heart; and that is the weakest form of Faith".
[Muslim Book 01,Chapter 21, Hadith #
80]
Lesson : as
mentioned above in Surah Taha Ayat 92."What stopped you when
you saw them going astray" This
Hadith contains a very important prescription to prevent the Muslim society from
all things which are forbidden in Islam. So long as Muslims adhered to it and
ceaselessly and fearlessly performed their obligation of enjoining the right and
forbidding the wrong, their society was largely safe from many evils and
sins.
